Kentucky Clerk Is Jailed For Refusal to Issue Marriage Licenses As A Result Of Her Religious Beliefs

#20

Quote:Why is every other county clerk in Kentucky issuing marriage certificates to gay couples?

 

Also, federal law supersedes local and state law. Federal court decisions supersede local and state court decisions, and a Supreme Court decision overrides anything and everything aside from the Constitution itself. That's how this crazy little thing we call the Constitution established American government, and when someone takes a government position, they agree to uphold the Constitution first and foremost. Don't like it? Canada's that way.


The USSC was not established to legislate, nor was it intended that they would be more powerful than any other branch. Judicial activism is a tool used by the proponents of big government to increase government's power, a dangerous tool used against freedom. That's why the Left had to kill federalism, if the states have the power to reject federal intrvention in local matters then big government cannot be all powerful.
